A Journey Through the New Releases of Metiseko’s Latest Collection

In the hush between water and land, where the Mekong River winds through centuries of tradition, Metiseko finds its latest muse. The newest arrivals in the MEKONG collection are more than garments, they are expressions of craft, memory and modern grace. 

Rooted in the delicate artistry of Vietnamese lacquerware and mother-of-pearl inlay, each print in this collection carries the soul of heritage: refined, abstracted, and reimagined for contemporary living. This is slow fashion with a quiet strength, where every brushstroke of color and line of tailoring tells a deeper story. 

THE PRINTS

Each textile design is a tribute to the patience and poetry of hand-crafted surfaces: 

PEARLWOOD INDIGO: Golden ochre branches stretch across a deep indigo ground, punctuated with off-white fan-shaped florals, invoking the glint of light across lacquered wood.

PEARLWOOD SKY: A study in softness, this print weaves brown and grey-blue motifs over an off-white canvas, echoing the calm expanses of morning sky reflected in river water.

FORGET-ME-NACRE: Petal-like florals bloom in powdery blues and muted golds, their delicate geometry reminiscent of handcut inlays kissed by moonlight.

INLAY BLOOM: Off-white blossoms—like fragments of shell—float across a gentle blue field, a nod to ornamental mother-of-pearl craftsmanship made modern.

Together, these prints form a visual dialogue—rooted in tradition, yet effortlessly modern in mood. 

THE SILHOUETTES

Designed with minimalist sophistication, the collection’s silhouettes allow the prints to speak for themselves. Clean tailoring meets soft structure, resulting in women’s and men’s pieces that glide rather than shout… ideal for those who dress with intention. And you’ve already found your favorites. The five standout pieces making waves since the launch: 

1. CAO LANH: A retro maxi beach dress that moves like river mist. 

2. TRAM CHI: The short drape dress made for sun-drenched afternoons.

3. BINH NINH: Palazzo pants that balance flow and structure with ease. 

4. TAN AN: A scarf-cut crop top that flirts with tradition and modernity. 

5. CA MAU: The cross-over pajama shirt, relaxed yet refined. 

Each piece is named after a place along the Mekong, reminding us that the land itself is woven into every thread. 

THE JOURNEY

The MEKONG collection invites you to wear your connection—to culture, to craft, to calm. It is a quiet ode to the spaces between the rush, where beauty lingers and traditions ripple forward. And so the journey continues…
